Where You Know Her From:

The Original Voice of Ash & Ash's Mom from Pokémon

For the first 8 seasons of the Pokémon anime series, Veronica Taylor was the most memorable and important part of the show: protagonist Ash Ketchum and his EXTREMELY trusting mother (who, ya know...let her child wander off into the wilderness to battle monsters at the age of 10).

Here she is talking about her experience on Pokemon, and even doing some of the voices herself. Skip to 0:49 and let the nostalgia flow through you...

She also did a few more voices for the show, including May and - wait for it - DIGLETT!

April O'Neil (Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles - 2003 series)

Didn't realize how prolific Veronica is? She has well over 50 separate voice credits throughout her career, many of them spanning years on different shows, movies, and videogame franchises. Including April O'Neil, in the 2003 reboot of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.

Leo Kliesen from the Tekken series

Veronica's appeared in a number of videogames as well - including Valkyrie Profile, L.A. Noire, and - most notably - as Leo Kliesen in Tekken 6 and onwards.

Where You Can See Her

Luckily for anyone attending C2E2 in Chicago - Veronica Taylor will be there every single day(April 25-27, 2014), signing autographs and appearing on panels! If you have any interest in voice acting, Pokemon, or meeting one of the most talented people in entertainment, you'll want to be there.
